Injection Molding

Easy to Process

With TempRite® CPVC, no performance aids are required to enhance the compound’s heat deflection characteristics. TempRite CPVC’s superior heat-deflection performance is built directly into the polymer, which is then compounded for injection molding.

As a result, TempRite CPVC materials offer manufacturers unmatched ease of processing, combined with excellent mechanical properties.

TempRite CPVC materials offer processing characteristics that are unrivaled in its class. With excellent melt-flow characteristics, TempRite CPVC processing materials are ideal for complex mold designs, and part processing on conventional vinyl equipment.

General Injection Molding

The TempRite CPVC compound family is the most complete line of compounds for injection molding. Included in this family are compounds that offer Underwriters Laboratories flammability and thermal index ratings and compliance with NSF listings.

Custom Injection Molding

Lubrizol has combined improved resins with state of-the-art compounding technology to produce a family of compounds that offer an outstanding blend of physical properties and excellent processibility. Today, these high flow TempRite CPVC compounds are being molded into part configurations that were impossible to achieve just a few short years ago. Significant advances in processibility now enable industrial designers and engineers to utilize the excellent physical properties that TempRite CPVC plastic offers, including:

  • Elevated temperature performance
  • Inherent flame retardance
  • Excellent electrical properties
  • Excellent toughness
  • Excellent chemical resistance
  • Excellent surface appearance
  • Fluorescent UV stability
  • Ease of post fabrication and weldability
  • Ease of painting and decorating
  • Excellent mechanical property balance

Electrical

A custom injection molding material, TempRite CIM (custom injection molding) CPVC compounds have an HDT of up to 220°F (104°C), which promotes dimensional stability at elevated service temperatures. TempRite CIM CPVC materials boast a UL 94 5Va performance rating and have good insulating properties.

Excellent melt-flow characteristics result in improved processing and reduced cycle times, allowing for the design of complex parts. In addition, the low shrinkage of TempRite CIM CPVC materials allow mold design to near-net part shape or for use in molds built for many other thermoplastics.

TempRite CIM CPVC materials are ideal for use in the heating/ventilation/air conditioning industry. Their low viscosity reduces shear sensitivity and broadens the processing window, providing consistent-looking parts with a high quality finish.

Low Combustibility

Available in injection molding compounds, TempRite LC (low-combustibility) CPVC materials were developed to provide durability, dimensional stability and chemical resistance for regulated environments

TempRite LC CPVC materials exceed FAA regulations for OSU heat release and NBS smoke performance in aircraft interior applications established at 65/65; 200. They also conform to UMTA (Urban Mass Transit Administration) guidelines for materials used in mass-transit vehicle interiors.
